To Kill a Luna
Inside: memories, crucial documents, my phone, my laptop—everything I can’t afford to lose again.
I pause by the window, eyes drifting over the moonlit gardens and dark forest beyond. The scent of pine and earth drifts on the breeze. I know the patrol routes by heart—three teams on the borders tonight, Dorothee leading one of them.
Inside me, Corneille stirs, her pain sharp and restless. She lets out a soft howl, a mournful cry echoing through my chest.
She wants out.
She wants to run, escape, scream.
I rest my palm over my heart.
